Millinghaus and Fludd go inside USC hoops

By Phil Kornblut

Believe Prep teammates 6-3 Shadell Millinghaus and 6-6 Leroy Fludd spent Tuesday afternoon getting an inside look at USC basketball under Frank Martin. The two along with their coach Tyson Waterman met with members of the Gamecock staff and got a tour of the campus and basketball facilities. "It's a beautiful campus," Millinghaus said. "We didn't get to talk that much with coach Martin but we were with coach Underwood the whole day." Martin had to leave during the afternoon to tape a segment for the Coaches Cook-Off which will be part of the Final Four events in Atlanta. Millinghaus said the coaches didn't talk to them much about their decision making process. Millinghaus plans to have a decision by April 25th or 27th and between now and then is looking to take official visits to USC, Oregon, Marquette, Tennessee and Tennessee Tech. Fludd also plans to visit Utah and Colorado State. Millinghaus said there's no clear cut leader for him but he has a top three of USC, Oregon and Marquette.
